Daily Golf - Where you are playing and how you go

[heater31]

Played Royal Adelaide yesterday for 37 points. First hit of 2015 and totally blind in regards to where the **** to hit the ball! plenty of blind holes either hitting over a hill off the tee or sharp doglegs into the unknown. Lobbed one into the moon like crater on the 3rd and somehow got it up and out of it in 1

Any danger of putting aside some of those exorbitant membership fees to putting some basic information on the tee block like distance from each marker and maybe a basic map of the hole? Apart from that I did enjoy the layout but I don't think it can overtake my favourite Kooyonga just yet...

Well looks like some bloke called Adam Scott didn't need a course map last Friday shot 67 with only 8 clubs including a regular sized putter

Did he play with Wade Ormsby or just knocked around with some mates?

Played with his old man apparently (who is a teaching professional) rumour on the RAGC Facebook page is that he has played all the T1 clubs whilst in town on a private trip. Latest Facebook post is he dropped in unannounced to the maintenance shed during their smoko break to say congratulations on the presentation of the course.

Wish he dropped into Belair.

if he dropped into Belair

A) his driver would be wrapped around the heads of those in charge
B) he probably wouldn't come back to SA

he also wouldn't need a driver

[mighty_tiger_79]

he could use it for the 18th

It was obviously your playing partner and you just happened to take a photo?

[carey]

Surely a fake photo?

[Booney]

Nobody I know, or me. Found it on the interwebs.

[bennymacca]

I had this before, at Tanunda. Obviously could take relief though

[mighty_tiger_79]

relief for what??

Immovable Obstructions and Abnormal Ground Conditions (Rules 24-2 and 25-1)

An immovable obstruction is an artificial object on the course that cannot be moved (e.g. a building) or cannot readily be moved (e.g. a firmly embedded direction post). Objects defining out of bounds are not treated as obstructions.

An abnormal ground condition is casual water, ground under repair or a hole, cast or runway made by a burrowing animal, a reptile or a bird.

That looks like a standard divot

[mighty_tiger_79]

that ball is still in a playable position

and I didn't think you followed the laws of golf!!

[bennymacca]

Nah it was definitely a hole dug from a bird or something. Glad I wasn't playing with you guys haha

If that isn't an abnormal ground condition I don't know what is!

[mighty_tiger_79]

that's not abnormal if you are used to hitting it into the trees which I am

Glenelg Golf Club article on Adam Scott's visit last week.

Shot an even 51 at the front 9 at the Pat South course today which included an 11 and 2 x 7's also. Got stuck behind 4 old blokes for 6 holes who took forever and didn't think to let me play through, i'll blame those holes on the frustration boiling over from the seniors making me wait minutes for each shot .
